Integration of information technology in manufacturing industry in recent years has dramatically affected the delivery of instruction in manufacturing engineering programs. Inclusion of the state of art techniques and technology in a manufacturing education, particularly in the engineering field, is a key factor in the advancement of this discipline. CIM laboratory strongly supports manufacturing engineering curriculum to fulfill some of the ABET requirements for criteria: (b) an ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data, (c) an ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs, (k) an ability to use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice. Some key components of CIM and hierarchy of operation in a manufacturing facility are studied and correlated. They include CAD-CAM link, numerical control, automation, production and manufacturing control, control through proper communication and computer supervisory control, robotics control, process planning. A short summary of planning, implementation, and managing of a CIM environment will also be covered. The students will conduct experiments on creating a CIM environment using computer supervisory control. By conducting a hands-on CIM lab project, students have access to the relatively new technologies associated with computer integrated manufacturing, which enable them to participate in tomorrow’s rapidly changing technologies and become creative problem-solvers and designers. In this project, students design a product that starts with raw materials and continue with fabricating parts, inspecting, assembling, and storing. This paper emphasizes on the technical contents as well as educational values of the projects.
